Llanwrtyd railway station (also known asLlanwrtyd Wells railway station^[2]) serves the town ofLlanwrtyd Wells,Powys,Wales. The station is on theHeart of Wales Line53+1⁄2 miles (86 km) north east ofSwansea. Therailway station is located at street level at Station Road near the town centre. All trains serving the station are operated byTransport for Wales.

Opened by theLNWR on 6 May 1867,^[3] as part of the company's Central Wales Extension Railway project, it is the location of one of the route's five remainingpassing loops. The loop points and associated indicators were replaced as part of a £5 million project byNetwork Rail to renew all five loops on the line in 2010.

The main buildings on the northbound platform still stand and whilst the station is now unstaffed (tickets must be bought on the train), a waiting room is not available within this building, a shelter near the main building is available. The main building is now run by Llanwrtyd Wells Community Transport (LWCT), who use it as a community centre and meeting rooms. A public phone and customer help point is available on this side, whilst the southbound platform has a waiting shelter only. Digital information screens and timetable posters provide train running details. Step-free access is available to both platforms, though the southbound one requires the use of a steeply inclined ramp.^[4]

There are five trains a day in each direction - southbound to Swansea and northbound toShrewsbury from Monday to Saturday, and two services on Sundays.^[5] It is the crossover point where some northbound and southbound services meet (except on Sundays), and where train crews can swap between trains.
